On the 29th of May the company visit for first years takes place. Nonetheless there are some spots available, so you can join as well!

There you can ask all your questions about the work they do there and how IT comes in handy in an insurance company!

Our growing digital marketing environment
State-of-the-art for customer interaction optimized (SOA) architecture

DELA IT is big enough to be able to design, manage and innovate yourself. But also small enough to be able to see the impact of your work and to be of added value for the end user and/ or customer. We have a nice mix of young and more experienced IT colleagues and a culture that is characterized by openness and collegiality. There is a lot of attention for the individual. Everything is negotiable. The informal atmosphere offers plenty of room for personal input.

Wafer Heating
The case will guide you through the steps of an ASML metrology engineer trying to diagnose the issue with the new wafer heating correction model. You will be learning about the model’s purpose and inner workings, studying machine measurement data, and proposing experiments in an attempt to pinpoint the problem and fix it.

Model optimization through data analysis
You and your team will investigate - given a basic mathematical model and customer data - how you can optimize that model for the data. You can maybe think of a better model or separate the good data from the bad.
Can you turn the customer into a happy customer?

Recently, Prodrive has developed AGVs to support factory automation. AGVs are vehicles that can autonomously transport goods and are used at Prodrive in a production and warehouse environment for logistic purposes. Our first prototypes are already operating in our production facilities. Currently we are improving these prototypes to market-ready products. This presentation will provide you with information about Prodrive in general and will go into more depth about our AGV project. We will discuss various topics such as production line optimisation, multi-robot path planning and task scheduling, covering both mathematical and software-related aspects.

The uncontrolled power of the big five, attention craving smartphones, addictive games, and not so social ‘social media’: Tech has been under fire lately and with good reason. The impact of tech on our day to day lives and our future life goals is immense. In a society in which everyone wants to be happy 24/7 and wants to live life so fully that their pursuit of happiness can become a burden itself, the tech sector has a unique challenge: How to enable and foster digital happiness in a sustainable way?

Will a quantum computer reveal our secrets?'
In the presentation, I will give an intuitive explanation of what makes a quantum computer different from a classical computer and what threats it introduces for state-of-the-art cryptography. Which algorithms are broken and which are not? Then I give insight in what our predictions are for when there will be a large quantum computer, and describe the most relevant quantum attack scenario's. Finally I will give the quantumresistant solutions we see, including postquantum cryptography.
Note: After subscription, showing up is mandatory. Und=subscribing is possible untill the 18th of june 2019.
